Two pieces of paper, one ink and one framelit is all that is needed for this easy masculine card. I don't know about you, but sometimes I struggle with cards for the men in our lives. Wetlands is one of my go to stamps when I need a card for a gentleman.
You will need the following products to make this card:
Basic Black Card Stock #121045
- cut at 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" score at 4 1/4"
- cut at 1 1/2" x 5 1/4"
- cut at 3" x 3"
Whisper White Card Stock #100730
- cut 2 at 4" x 5 1/4"
- cut at 1 1/4" x 5 1/4"
- cut at 3" x 3"
I used the Layering Framelits to cut out the circles. When I stamped the "Birthday Wishes" (you need to get it close to the goose) I made sure the right hand side of my stamp was in the middle of the neck of the goose. Then it will fit perfectly.
I used snail adhesive to attach everything and stamped the wheat stamp on the inside of the card and my envelope.
I am having my open house today (if the weather cooperates). I can't wait to share the new catalogs with everyone.
Thank you for stopping by today!
Happy Stampin!
Joyce

I agree, masculine cards are sometimes difficult. I like how easy this one is, great for making multiples.

I like your card is perfect for a man. I am a little confused on the measurements for the white card stock. The measurement I am referring to is the one that is the 1/4 x 5 1/4 I was wondering if that is the one that the small birds are stamped on and thought maybe it should be 1 1/4 x 5 1/4
I also liked the colors that you used.
